My power supply fan quit spinning. Actually i have a dual fan power supply and the fan in the front that sucks the air in is spinnning but the fan that blows it out the back stopped. There hasnt been any problems w/ my system though. Also it isnt getting hot or anything. So should i be concerned and replace it?
Some power supply units are smart. They have the ability to control fan movement on their own depending on the need for cooling. Check your manual and if this is not the case, replace it. A fulty power supply is not to be taken lightly.
